Answer:

Continous distributions:

- A probability distribution showing the average number of days mothers spent in the hospital.

- A probability distribution showing the weights of newborns.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability distribution showing the number of vaccines given to babies during their first year of life will have a discrete distribution as only a natural number can represent the number of vaccines (0, 1, 2 vaccines and so on).

A probability distribution showing the average number of days mothers spent in the hospital can be described as continous because we are averaging days and this average can be fractional, so it is not discrete.

A probability distribution showing the weights of newborns is continous, as the weights are a continous variable (physical measurement), not discrete.

A probability distribution showing the amount of births in a hospital in a month is a discrete distribution, as the number of births can only be represented by natural numbers.

How to find the area of a segment of a circle if r=8 and central angle =120 degrees. Please explain clearly and thoroughly. Will
bekas [8.4K]
First you need to find the area of the circle, which is πr^2
With a radius of 8 inches, the area of the circle will be π*8^2 or 64π.
Next you want to find the area of the 120 degree section of that circle.
120 degrees is 1/3 of a circle, so all you have to do next is multiply the are of the circle by 1/3 (because 360/120= 1/3).
(1/3)(64π) --> All you really have to do here is multiply 64 by 1/3 or divide it by 3 (because to divide by a number is the same a multiplying by it's reciprocal) so you get (64/3)(π).
64/3 is 21 and 1/3 or 21.333..., so however you choose to write it, I will leave the answer as (64/3)π squared inches.

Which ordered pair is the solution to the system of linear equations y = negative 7 x + 2 and y = 9 x minus 14? (negative 5, 1)
Anettt [7]

Answer:

B. (1,-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a system of equations. We are asked to choose the ordered par that is the solution to the given system.

y=-7x+2...(1)

y=9x-14...(2)

To solve our given system, we will equate both equations as:

9x-14=-7x+2

Combine like terms:

9x+7x-14+14=-7x+7x+2+14

16x=16

x=\frac{16}{16}=1

Upon substituting x=1 in equation (1), we will get:

y=-7(1)+2\\\\y=-7+2\\\\y=-5

Therefore, the ordered pair (1,-5) is the solution of the given system and option B is the correct choice.
